Brandon Campbell has been best friends with Jacob and set the whole day up, with help from everyone at Union Road Volunteer Fire Department.

"Best friend someone can have. It is the best way to describe it. He is always there if you call him for anything," Brandon said. "Means a lot; you are giving someone the opportunity to do something that they might not be able to do and I mean that in itself is enough."

The guys gave him a full tour, making sure Jacob took full advantage of his day at the station.

"We took him to breakfast, we let him check off the truck, we took him through a smoke house, he got to flow a little water, we took him to fill up a truck and show him how a hydrant works."

It is certainly a day that he won't soon forget.

"It means everything to me. This is my dream, a dream come true," Jacob said. "I have always wanted to be a firefighter. It is amazing today; amazing doesn't even describe today. I don't even know a word to describe it."
